The odds are fairly good for another green week on Nasdaq, though perhaps not as strong as last week when the Nasdaq rose more than 4%. In the $1,000 challenge, betting on Snap last week paid off, boosting the $1,000 portfolio to $2,784. We are now on the hunt for the next milestone at $4,000.
The upcoming week will be busy with major quarterly results from companies such as Starbucks (SBUX), Coca-Cola (KO), Marathon Petroleum (MPC), 3M (MMM), Mastercard (MA), Qualcomm (QCOM), Pfizer (PFE), Apple (AAPL), and Novo Nordisk (NVO), to name a few. The highlight of the week will undoubtedly be the Federal Reserve minutes on Wednesday.
